StarCraft 2: Pro Gameplay Commentary - PainUser

[epicduckeh6]

I never quite understood Starcraft, when ever a pro plays and I watch all I see is his mouse moving furiously to build things and rush. It gives me a head ache

[mrbungs]

I do not get strategy games. I don't see how they are fun. Maybe I need to give them a fairer chance... but I downloaded the Shogun 2 demo and couldn't even understand where the fun came in. Guess I'm a more hands on gamer or something.

[OSeraphim]

@mrbungs

The fun is what the game gives back compared to what you put in. Some people just like that feeling of being a commander and the tactics of it.

[mrbungs]

@OSeraphim I can't wrap my head around these games. It's a world I've never dove into.

[TheSamurai110]

u guys recommend Starcraft 2 it looks like a really awesome lan game maybe :D ?

[SketchyAussie]

@TheSamurai110 There is no LAN on Starcraft 2. It sucks and there is a lot of controversy over it.

You can still have a LAN party, but you'll have to connect to battle.net regardless.

That said, it's a damn awesome game to play with friends, IMO the best part of it. :-)

[xiao53]

guys i needed some help. i cant upgrade my starcraft and they keep as me to resend verified email. even though i resent i did not recieve any mails. pls help thanks.

[MarkusAndersen342]

This is cool to watch I really would love to be as good as you but I'm not...

I have played for a while and still suck, lots of things I could learn.

From watching this video I don't even get to know what you're clicking at or interacting with ^^

[bumshka21]

@MarkusAndersen342 What? Its his direct view, not a cast. What you're saying he's clicking to is PRECISELY what you're getting to learn. Though, somewhat this is reduced since he's not playing absolutely focused (and you see how his resources are under-used).

But there are LOTS of 'strategy sc2' games on youtube. Goo..gle?

[MarkusAndersen342]

wish I was pro ;) seems soo delicious and rewarding.. But I suck at this game. You need to click like.. a million things in one time.. I need a good strategy book. Anyone??? About making unit groups, those you can select with C+1/2/3/4/5/6 etc.., opgrades, what to use against what, macro micro etc etc etc..

It's devastating to be in the state I am in now, losing day after day after day not knowing what to do. ;(

[MarkusAndersen342]

wish I was pro ;) seems soo delicious and rewarding.. But I suck at this game. You need to click like.. a million things in one time.. I need a good strategy book. Anyone???

[RealmEternal]

Is PainUser an actual pro? I don't keep up with the sc2 scene but he's so slow compared to brood war pros.

[DarenHD]

@RealmEternal hes one of the top terran players in the world...

[hesitation24]

husky and HD offer commentaries with much higher graphics enabled

[VideoHeadII]

such a weak game that toss player sucked

[Xcomer0]

BOOM, ARMORY

[servantxsword]

total biscuit is awesome

[TheSP1TF1R3]

@servantxsword agreed

[BLAblaBLAblaBLAbla87]

lol i got 1000 wins and im diamond league and i dont even know the movement speed from one unit XD

[Yubel0]

@BLAblaBLAblaBLAbla87 That may be why you are in Diamond league :P There are two others above that now.

[BLAblaBLAblaBLAbla87]

@Yubel0 well i know someone who was in saison 1 platin league in 4vs4, then he lost the placement game for season 2 and now hes MASTER league... in season 1 i was diamond rank 5 with ca 3000 points and im still diamond^^ and the grandmaster league or how its called in english is only in 1vs1 and only 200 people are in there.

[grinder250]

what is with all the clicks >.> u only need to clikci t once for them to move

[aznjokeralwaysfunny]

@grinder250 we get bored while there move its just to keep us doing something while they move from point a to point b

[devilazpl]

we ot TotalHalibut also <3 hes the best

[thegreenpikmin]

The blue flame upgrade looks like water in low res X)

[awaws]

Koreans for the win xD

[PlayItRough09]

This was bloody great, refreshing from all the trash trailers. Keep it up, maybe try some Halo or mix it up with something like Counter-Strike: Source.

[xBANZAIx808]

I liked it , its fresh and renewing

[HANEHANE08]

i love the graphic LOL



[nikhil3492]

we need husky wtf!

[kyle1000000]

[TuEIite]

Once again, thank you IGN for supporting esports, can never say it enough. Everyone should Like/Share this vid and make sure it gets ton of views. Thumbs up.

[guitarpro925]

rush? isnt it cheese,,,

[OutlookJonas]

Hey its ROOTCatz little baby. ROOTKitty

[Sen1Sky]

@Sen1Sky fag trolololololl

[Sen1Sky]

@egill4a lol a guy who likes art and crafts i mean star craft is talking big lol, you are a fucking loser, i will beat your entire retarded family and feed them to my dog

[SweetSinFZ]

IGN, we have Husky and HD. GO away.

[tukarak]

@SweetSinFZ Husky is the most retarded,most unfunny and he doesnt know jackshit about casting or the game itself he is the biggest imbecil and most embarrassing part of starcraft 2 community

[Yubel0]

@SweetSinFZ why should IGN go away?

[MrDailychance]

@SweetSinFZ painuser commentates with HD

[Dudefromspace567]

@SweetSinFZ Huskys is a fucking retarded peice of shit thats less then worthless, hd is fucking stuipd but alright i guess

[SQU1RT5]

YOU HAVE NOT ENOUGH MINERALS!

[kyluin]

This guy has MAJOR ADD! He is FLYING around the screen.

[Bupalumpa]

Keep it coming

[Tree0fLlfe]

I love that IGN is getting more into supporting Esports. Great stuff.

[shutuplz23]

not getting tanks is like saying i want to lose this game.

[indierollz]

PainUser uses "tank!" ..... It's SUPER effective!

[TmanTerry1997]

HAVE HUSKY ON

[iDommmmmmmmmmmm]

You guys do realize this is a video about Starcraft right?

Not about consoles or PC's...

Bitches these days

[heathheath90]

Sport: an athletic activity requiring skill or physical prowess and often of a competitive nature

Sorry koreans

[Yony42]

@heathheath90 Some boardgames, like chess, are considered to be Olympic sports. Therefore, Starcraft can easily be defined as a sport. And to make things even clearer, it is defined as an 'e-sport'.

Sorry, your point is invalid.

[RaynorKerrigan]

Why are the graphics settings so low?

[LaNDoNx18]

@RaynorKerrigan all pros play on lower setting cuz they be;ieve it helps the game feel smoother The only games you'll ever see on higher settings are casts

[SuspectX1]

Needs more Day9

[WingsOfPhilosophy]

That is INSANE! That is s....

OO to the vid (it's raw seeing pros from ego perspective (...I too lazy downloading replays)) and OO to the commentaries ... uhm, well - to the audience: We excuse the increasing amount of monkeys running around!

As a sane man I need to emphasize that this clicking around is possibly placeholding activity for future upgrades. I once tried clicking around so much and forgot to play from all that clicking! Seriously! In the time he manages 5 corners of the map I ..

[NICKROCKSHARD15]

IGN DEFF NEEDS TO DO THIS MORE HIRE DAY9!!!!!!

[servantxsword]

@NICKROCKSHARD15 he works for the thegamestation , hd and husky 2

[TheRabbitFear]

They have their own IGN starcraft channel

[Abs9106]

@dave212kill Painuser is a pro gamer. He wasnt playing to the best of his abilities because he was talking the whole time.

[msmith32]

Why can't we all just be friends?

OMG FUCK YOU! I'M SO OFFENDED BY YOUR CONSOLE/PC INSULT!

[eine1]

we want more of this

[toMUCHskillHD]

Where did you get Painuser!?

[Yubel0]

@toMUCHskillHD Painuser is now available at your local walmart.

[JOBOB335]

painuser is bragging about his memorization of the damage.. BUT immortals only take TEN damage not TWENTY muwhahaahah score one for the gold player

[oystein127]

Just another exampel of another shitty American player

this is not pro!!!

[egill4a]

that was great :)

[oystein127]

These are not pro

All americans suck ass at Starcraft 2

asians are the best and there a few good european players

[Lodgeinator]

@oystein127 Not realy, there are good players from all over the world.

[oystein127]

@Lodgeinator Nah retard i am talking about the best of the best

all the best players in the world are from south korea (too many to name)

also good players from sweden (Jinro,) ukraine (White-Ra, Dimaga) thailand (Sen) china(Loner)

Most american pro players are shit only IdrA is somewhat good but he is also a mediocre failure

i didnt expect uk trash to know anything about pro starcraft 2( and i seem to be correct on that) go back to your tea

[MrScarcrow]

@oystein127 everyboy know that american suck big ass dicks in general and extremly on starcraft 2

[d0n1mega]

Goood job, IGN owns..

PS: GameSpot SUCKS

[PacinoBR]

HOW DA FUCK U GUYS GOT INTO PC IS BETTER THEN CONSOLE in a F****** Starcraft 2 video ?

[divine0g0d]

this is on low setting and PC games will always be better than console

[lazzermusen]

so i just tried this game and it fucking sucked. did blizzard make this?

[egill4a]

@lazzermusen fail?

[benderbg]

People who disliked tried to push gateway units with missile turrets!

[oystein127]

@benderbg Or they just dont like shitty players

[lexsoOr]

quick gg, didnt like it at all

[Kraverick]

Something I enjoyed as hell

[vWolfLone]

308+1=309 views :D



[cutiko]

This game wasnt pro at all.

[Oscarurd]

nice quality IGN

[JED477]

I dont have pc saddly.

[kuwalacocklog]

Why are PC gamers always so bitchy? Yes we all know pc games look better. But A good pc costs around £1600. If i wanted to hear stuff like this ide play call of duty.

[XReflection]

@kuwalacocklog £1600? You don't even need £700 to play SCII on high settings..

[kuwalacocklog]

@XReflection Not just starcraft obvisouly. Im saying most pc gamers spend that amount to get the best possible pc.

[XReflection]

@kuwalacocklog I honestly doubt it. Just because PC gamers like great graphics, there are so many options out there that let you get the best experience without need to drop tons of money. I know that I've spent <$2000 total on my upgrades and stuff ever since I first built my pc. So I really doubt you'd need to spend over $2000 to get a good pc.

[Vleesball]

@kuwalacocklog My high end pc costed 800 dollar.

you fail.

thats half the price you just named.

I run crysis 2 maxed out with 130 fps, v-sync on : )

[super3slug]

@Vleesball you cany get 130fps with v-sync on otherwise you win

[heneryDoDs]

It's on low. 100% low. pause when he goes into the options at the beginning

[RIPPBLADE]

first

[oskking9820]

@RIPPBLADE Just no.

[oskking9820]

Just no.

[iscrewy]

Wow. That was a real soon gg :P

[realfreakaynaughtay]

Glorious PC Master Race

[redshirtspeaker]

best game in the world!

[axci123fire]

Wow, this is Painuser? Really? IGN, you have set new standards =D

[Bilbo940]

"yeah, that ass"

[slipknotjake]

apm = retarded amounts of unnecessary clicking

[Yaenu1093]

this is one of this guys who keeps clicking around for no reason to keep his APM up^^ Look at 4:21 for example^^

[DonKaranIsBack]

this guy obviouslt has ADHD

[GuitarZero300]

Lol, Im a PC and console gamer, and While I admit PC gaming is more fun... PC gamers just seem like jackasses.

[GuitarZero300]

@GuitarZero300 This is a general statement, most are cool, but those who make fun of consoles need to realize that not everyone can afford PCs.

[715th]

@GuitarZero300 why would u say that

[chrisfloor7]

i love pc en consoles both. starcraft is a great game i play it alot and i like it way better then COD ( witch i used to play)

[Jonscomin2]

GayCraft 2 is for fags.

[JAWZxz]

@iscrewy You're only a 7th grader and you're a teacher???

[personpeoplehime]

@JAWZxz What can I say. He's a beast.

[iscrewy]

@JAWZxz

I corrected myself a few seconds after I posted the comment.

[iscrewy]

@Jonscomin2

Error I made. I meant to say peers. Not pupils :P

[GamingDeluxeHD]

[Jonscomin2]

[Jonscomin2]

@GamingDeluxeHD Fail comeback is fail.

[Seanlightning400]

@GamingDeluxeHD Obvious flamer is obvious.

[redshirtspeaker]

@Jonscomin2 hearing the word gay from someone called JONS COMIN doesnt really sound right. plus , youre a fuckin faggot :D

[Jonscomin2]

@redshirtspeaker u mad Gaycraft fanboy?

[redshirtspeaker]

@Jonscomin2 def a starcraft fanboy :D JONSCOMIN lol what could i possibly say to you that your youtube name doesnt already prove. ill skip the 'youre a fucking faggot' part again and let your name speak for itself :D

[Jonscomin2]

@redshirtspeaker Fail comeback is fail.

[Seanlightning400]

@redshirtspeaker Trolololo.

[lokofaith]

@Jonscomin2 then why are you here? oh oh , dont tell me you are a fag..

[Jonscomin2]

@lokofaith Cool story bro.

[CReaper210]

@Jonscomin2 Or for people who like balanced, competitive games. Call of Duty is for fags.

[Jonscomin2]

@CReaper210 I don't even play Call of Duty, fucking dumbass.

[CReaper210]

@Jonscomin2 I'm sure...

[SCGFTW]

@Jonscomin2 I agree 100%. Fuck the fanboys.

[lxlANDlxl]

@SCGFTW lol, what fanboys

[DvineGaming]

@SCGFTW WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU ON!? If another developer made a shooter maybe but this is an RTS to the core, jesus man you need to be shot. IGN's community is filled with fucking idiots like you.

[SCGFTW]

@DvineGaming U MAD?

[DvineGaming]

@SCGFTW WAS a little irritated, you know like 5 months ago once your parents gave your computer back after you were swearing at Call of Duty.

[Franticticktick1]

@DvineGaming Cool story, Mike Sorrentino.

[Yaenu1093]

@Jonscomin2 so Who was watching and commenting a starcraft vid 3 minutes ago?

[MrFirefox9999]

Ask Husky or Crota for advice on giving good commentary

[NikolaGREG]

why are they playing on the lowest settings

[mommasboy0]

@NikolaGREG improved FPS

[Yubel0]

@NikolaGREG Its really easy to see dark templar on the low settings.

[MrFirefox9999]

This is the poorest excuse of SC2 commentary I have ever seen

[LightningCloud93]

IGn should ask husky for tips ...

[monoclethief]

@LightningCloud93 Husky is not a professional player, he's a commentator. PainUser knows WAY more about the game than Husky does.

[1337noobGaming]

@monoclethief theres always day9 :]

[Dr1Great]

Although this may look like Very High settings to console players, this is just low/medium

[MrSinanabi]

@Dr1Great

that is all low setting but is better then high

[hepper95]

@Dr1Great

more like low/very low.

[Flee4me]

@Dr1Great I'm a console player, and these settings look below average...

[BatDude27]

@Dr1Great looks like low/lowest to me on sub hd.... just look at the textures..the ps2 could do better

[divinegod102]

@Dr1Great Another typical fanboy comment about how superior PC is to other systems. Seriously, get a fucking life.

[heath2357]

@divinegod102 PC is just better, every way, get some fucking money, harden the fuck up, quit your QQ, then buy one if you can figure out how to turn it on.

[superchodemonkey]

@heath2357 what else? fag

[divinegod102]

@heath2357 The motherfucking problem here is I own a fucking gaming PC including 2 next-gen systems and one thing I have to tell your sorry ass is I love them all. Get the fuck out of here you're a fucking disgrace to all of gaming community.

[cruzin1440]

@Dr1Great Because graphics make great games? And Blizzard's games are nothing to write home about...

[calian0770]

@Dr1Great its a PC what do you thing DumNum ??

[N2350]

@Dr1Great oh ya because they looks just FUCKING AMAZING rofl, dude they dont look uber lol what are you talking about

[Smalldude08]

@Dr1Great dude... really? So your saying ALL console games look like this? Hmmm Uncharted 3... Killzone 3... God of War... Mass Effect... Final Fantasy. Lets think about this. ANY game exclusive to a console will look good. Crysis 1 looks good because they know on the PC they can handle more (aka easy upgrading). On the PS3 Uncharted and all those. On Xbox Mass Effect. I could say "Oh look the PC has stupid Pong, such bad graphics." But no i would not do that since everythings ***RELATIVE***

[Dr1Great]

@Smalldude08 umad brah?

[Smalldude08]

@Dr1Great no.. i just hate PC fanboys like you. oh look us PC have a $5,000 computer than can handle crysis on max settings. ok we get it, the PC can handle more. why? because they can be upgraded easily. console players cant.. and its not good for a console to come out with a yearly update. we make the most of what we have. this looks like shit to be honest.. graphics wise. this is "high graphics" as you say it is.

[Dr1Great]

@Smalldude08 u sooooo mad
